Burning of the Velvet Fires

Come dance with the fires
In a daydream of youth
When wild like the rivers
When tall as the mountains

Inverted world of thoughts inside
Where tragedies born flowers and joy
Death spreads only life
When you laugh you really cry

Man out of time is lost within his echoes
Call the winds that guide to push him onwards
See him through his end
Walk with ease through decadence
Burn a wormhole to this heart
Sent to the end of the stars

(Burning of the Velvet Fires)
(Burning of the Velvet Fires)
The burning of the velvet fires (Burning of the Velvet Fires)
In a distant time unknown (Burning of the Velvet Fires)
Now piercing through your thoughts (Burning of the Velvet Fires)
The innocence once left behind (Burning of the Velvet Fires)

And there he runs
On a burning velvet field

(I suppose that at one time or another when you stood outside,)
(And looked up in wonder at the night sky)
(And the endless panorama of the stars)
(We've landed men on the moon)
(And we've sent space rockets to circle Mars)
(But as we learn more about the universe)
(We learn how little we really know)

Threw him through the wall
Send him spinning into the universe
Where ends the man where he began
May the truth be eclipsed no more

There we run
On a burning velvet field

The burning of the velvet fires (Burning of the Velvet Fires)
In a distant time unknown (Burning of the Velvet Fires)
Now piercing through your thoughts (Burning of the Velvet Fires)
The innocence once left behind (Burning of the Velvet Fires)

The burning of the velvet fires(Burning of the Velvet Fires)
In a distant time unknown (Burning of the Velvet Fires)
Now piercing through your thoughts (Burning of the Velvet Fires)
The innocence once left behind (Burning of the Velvet Fires)

The burning of the velvet fires
In the house of your soul they exist
Burning through all these years
May they keep on burning forever more

There we run
On a burning velvet field

Escaping thus the death of dreams
